find the leaders and lets charge them with RICO and get our money back.. States Attoneys General ... get a set..
Under RICO, a person who is a member of an enterprise that has committed any two of 35 crimes—27 federal crimes and 8 state crimes—within a 10-year period can be charged with racketeering. Those found guilty of racketeering can be fined up to $250,000 and/or sentenced to 20 years in prison per racketeering count. In addition, the racketeer must forfeit all ill-gotten gains and interest in any business gained through a pattern of “racketeering activity.” RICO also permits a private individual harmed by the actions of such an enterprise to file a civil suit; if successful, the individual can collect treble damages.

If global warming was true global warming “believers” would not be ripping down hydro-electric dams for any reason.

"It is important to know that meteorologists are not climatologists."

ROFL

There is no such thing as a climatologist, only political hacks with a agenda to push who couldn't pass a basic college level science class if their life depended on it.

The “environmental science” degree programs at most colleges are anything BUT science, they are more like “african studies” programs than any real science program.

The title should read, “Scientists,” with the quotes.

Anyone who has studied complex models knows they are dubious at best for predicting anything long term. Even if you tune them to match past trends it doesn’t mean they will be accurate in projecting future trends. If those models were as accurate as some try to trick the public into believing then all kinds of other models including economic models which are monitoring much more simple and clear dynamics would be more accurate also and they are not. Climate scientists are largely government scientists and they come from schools that have a largely far left bent which explains a lot of the bias that is seen. The inherent bias to maintain their government grants and their standing in a community of like minded individuals is what is driving this.

Or, that many meteorologists just stick with science.

Well, well...we know that Gore is the biggest scammer of all of them. Wonder when PM Brown is going to be voted out...since he is part of the Gore scam.

It’s one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but it’s quite another to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...

THEREFORE..., it’s also absolutely necessary for people to know the information in the following documentary. If there were simply one video that you could see and/or show people you know... this would be the one...


The following is an excellent video documentary on the so-called “Global Warming” I would recommend it to all FReepers. It’s a very well-made documentary.

“The Great Global Warming Swindle”

If you want to download it, via a BitTorrent site (using a BitTorrent client), you can get it at the following link. Information about BitTorrent protocol and BitTorrent clients and their comparison at these three links (in this sentence). Some additional BitTorrent information here and here.

Download it here...
http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/3635222/The_Great_Global_Warming_Swindle
[This is a high-quality copy, of about a gigabyte in size. This link is the information about it, and you have to click the download link to get it on your BitTorrent client software. You'll also find users' comments here, too.]

It’s worth seeing and having for relatives, friends, neighbors and coworkers to see.

Also, see it online here...
http://www.moviesfoundonline.com/great_global_warming_swindle.php
[this one is considerably lower quality, is a flash video and viewable online, of course..., and also, you can download flash video on a website either yourself or some software doing it.]

Buy it on DVD here...
[this would be the very highest quality version, on a DVD disk, of several gigabytes in size...] At Amazon, it seems to be high-priced now and have only a few copies right now.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WLUXZE

At WAGtv (a UK shop), but don't know about shipping. The price is reasonable, though.

[And..., some information from WAGtv about this item.]

No one with half of a brain can look at even a summary of the history of climate and conditions of our planet and still believe then human beings are causing the global climate to change, in one way or another.

If the planet IS getting warmer, and you wonder why, look up into the sky at that bright white star that we commonly refer to as THE SUN for an explanation.

If anything, people with common sense should welcome warmer climates. It has been during warm periods that life on our planet has thrived. Basically, the entire history of life on our planet has been between ice ages. Life advances between Ice Ages, and is suppressed or nearly non existent during Ice Ages. Those are the facts. Ask any geologist.

A couple of weeks ago the STAR had a full front page spread on the Antarctic warming and the dangers of global warming. They must see the writing on the wall to publish this this Sunday.

Trying to save whatever credibility they have left although they still push the Liberal mantra. They even shaded this one. Thompson is the only forecaster with the fortitude to come right out and call it like it is.

Reading the comments it seems a lot hate him because he is Catholic and therefore must be anti science. I wonder what their FR handles are? :-)

Not only does this gorebal menace choose the most extreme, rigged, fabricated scientific data he can conjure up, he willingly, shamelessly announces his ignorance for the record — to further the global governance agenda. This egocentric charlatan must dream of being crowned king of the world in the near future … and a dream it will remain, Your HOAXness.

"It is important to know that meteorologists are not climatologists."

Yeah but it's more important to know that Algore is not a climatologist. Hell not even the head of the IPCC is a climatologist. He's a frick'n railroad engineer for crying out load. At least meteorology is in the immediate neighborhood.

But after considerable persuasion last week, the Fox affiliate WDAF reluctantly allowed its chief meteorologist, Mike Thompson, to explain in an e-mail to The Kansas City Star why he breaks from the scholarly worldview of the causes of climate change. “It has become completely political — it’s not about science at all,” he wrote in an e-mail. “If science were the objective, then we would be seeing an entirely different debate. But there are agendas at play, and it has undermined the credibility of climate science.”

I have always liked Mike Thompson since he came to Kansas City local. I am glad to know that my gut was right that he is not one of those Algore/weatherchannel weather loons.

Others have been ridiculed for less...we have Truthers; Birthers...I recommend ‘Gorethers’ for those who blindly ignore actual science; refuse to see the scams and fraud; and follow AGW with religious zeal. Gorethers!

....and a plug to meteorologist and Weathter Channel Founder John Coleman who was screaming fraud since day 1. John, you are true patriot for being almost the single voice early on.

I hope history will ID you as one of the early fighters who brought this to light.

“It is important to know that meteorologists are not climatologists.”
It is also important to know that if meteorologists are frequently wrong about tommorrow’s weather why should we listen to what a climatologist says the weather will be in 50 years.

From the article...”It is important to know that meteorologists are not climatologists.”

It is important to know that the myriads of proponents of global warming are generally not scientists. Politics has trumped science in the issues of global warming.

What we know from history is that global mean temps are cyclic. These cycles are related to the sun, not to any of the puny contributions man has ever made, or ever will make.
